Synopsis

“IGGSTOCK” is the story of a group of small town Canadians too young to go to Woodstock, however in 1981 decide to grow their own music festival. This 76min. documentary traces the genesis and evolution of “IGGSTOCK” and it's key founders, performers and artists, tracing the 25 year history of this remote Ontario music festival back to a simpler time and space, a manifestation of the ‘back to the land’ Hippie movement. 


Through a scrapbook aesthetic, employing archival footage, original music, interviews, photographs and graphic animation, this piece steps into parallel world populated by its own stars and groupies, lacks and excesses, dreams and deceptions, to offer a unique glimpse into Canadian counter cultural identities and the festival's living musical legacy… Featuring the music of: Blue Peter, Tanglefoot, The Dwight's, Three Days Grace, My Darkest Days, Willis, Kim Brown, Ramblin’ Hillbillies, Grainne Ryan, and many more...
